LOUIS SOHOLLER, OF SAN FRANCSCO, CALIFORNIA.

NEOKTIE HOLDER.

Application led June 15, 1923.

To all whom t may concern Be it known that I, Louis ScHoLLnn, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of `San Francisco, in the State or" California, have invented a certain new and useiul Necktie Holder, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a necktie holder 4 and more particularly to a holder for a necktie of the four-in-hand type, and has for its main object the provision of a holder that is invisible when in use. Y

Another object of the invention is to provide a holder that will keep the tie in position without making a tight knot.

A further object of the invention is to provide a necktie holder that will preserve the tie and prevent same from becoming unduly wrinkled.

These and other objects are attained by the provision oi' the device constituting the neclrtie holder which will be hereinafter described in detail., reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which:

Fig.l l is a side elevation of the necktie holder, before being placed in the shirt front;

Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the necktie holder in the position shown by Fig. l;

Fig, 3 is a Jiront elevation ot the necktie holder as it appears when placed in the shirt front; and

Fig. 4 is a view showing the Vholder in position in the shirt front in relation to the tie when Vin use.

Referring to the drawings in detail, the holder comprises the telescoping members l and 2, the member l being of hollow tubular construction and the member 2 being a rod of circular cross section. The rod 2 is in sliding` engagement with the tubular erial N0. 645,577.

clearly apparent more particularly .from Fig. 4 of the drawings.

The rod 2 is provided at its lower end with an outwardly curved portion 6 on which is mounted a stud or button 7 adapted to be placed in a button hole of the shirt iront, as s obvious.

The construction of the holder is believed to be clear from the above description and the manner of use is also thought to be so obvious as to make further explanation unnecessary. It will be understood that the tie is held in place by the tension imparted to the cap 4 and the attached prongs 5 which engage the tie, the stud 7 being positioned in a buttonhole which thereby supports the entire holder. VThe advantages of the device are believed to be apparent and the objects of the invention, as above enumerated, are believed to be realized by the embodiment illustrated and described. And while I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be understood that certain changes in the arrangement and construction of parts may be made without departing from the invention as defined by the appended claims.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:

l. A necktie holder comprising two spring pressed telescopic members, one of said members having a stud adapted tobe inserted within a button hole in the front oi' the shirt of the wearer and the other of said members having means to engage the necktie to thereby support it in proper adjusted position.

2. A necktiesupporter comprising two members and spring means yieldingly urging said members apart, one of said members having a stud adapted to be received within the button hole in the front of t-he shirt of the wearer, and the other of said members being adapted to engage the necktie to thereby support it in proper adjusted position.

3. A necktie holder comprising means to engage the front of the shirt of the wearer, means adapted to engage the necktie at a point above that at which the shirt is engaged whereby the neektie is held in proper adjusted position, and means for'yieldinglyv urging apart said shirt engaging means and I said neoktie engaging means.

4. A necktie holder comprising two telescopio members and spring means yieldingly urging said members apart, one of said members having means to engage the shirt front of the wearer, and the other of said lo members having prongs for engaging the neektie at a point above that at Which the shirt front is engaged whereby the neoktie is supported in proper adjusted position.

In Witness whereof, I hereunto affix my 15 signature.

Louis soHoLLER.
